[Ansteorra] silk twill Re: Any Weavers *NOT* at Gulf War???

[Susan Tillery]

Have you tried Dharma trading Co.? They appear to have  silk twill suitable for 
dyeing.

They sell dyes too.  I've never dealt with them. I've just spent time drooling 
over their catalog.

Yeah, as I was reading more of the instruction booklet I finally found, it
just didn't sound positive.  Well, now I am back to square one...  trying
to locate red silk twill fabric.  I'd be happy to locate a white silk twill
and dye it.  However, this just brings in a whole new set of things I have
to learn.  I have two really nice bits of red linen fabric that I am
thinking about using instead.  Just not sure I want to go to all of the
trouble of having to learn yet another skill just to do my embroidery.

*heavy sigh*

Thanks for the thought Cynthia.  It is always nice to know I have learned
enough to be on even ground with everyone else instead of just playing in
the sandbox with the *kids*.
